Excellent resource for chemical dependency counselors
| Customer Rating: | | This book provides current information regarding drugs clients may be taking, their side effects, alternatives, symptoms, etc. A must-have for any counselor's desk. |
Great Book
| Customer Rating: | | I highly recommend this book for professionals who work in the mental health field or for those who work in Child Protection or a related field that might need a quick reference for medications that their clients might be on if you aren't already familar with it. |
PDR Drug Guide for Mental Health Professionals, 3rd ed. (Pdr Drug Guide for Mental Health Professionals)
| Customer Rating: | | I love this book. I use it all the time. I especially like the pics of the meds since many clients come in saying they took "the orange pill". It helps identify what meds they are taking. I often use it to educate my clients about the medication, the side-effects, what to look for, what to avoid, how to take it. It helps me support my clients more. I highly recommend it. |
needed more than this book had to offer
| Customer Rating:  | | I found this book of limited use because anyone dealing with prescribed medications in the mental health field is also usually dealing with someone taking other medications- for pain, sleep, GI distress, etc. So having a book on only mental health medications has not been that helpful to me. It is worth getting a more comprehensive book. |
Finally a reference guide that weighs less than 20 pounds!
| Customer Rating: | | Diagnosed with a number of psychological disorders at a very young age, I have been prescribed medication after medication. I soon found myself wanting to know what it was that I was taking. I trusted my doctors be feared they may have overlooked possible side effects or interactions. I have used the full sized PDR along with the Genarics tomb as well, books both very heavy and overly complex for someone uneducated in medicine. Now, PDR: Drug Guide for Mental Health Professionals has alowed me to quickly cross-refrence drug interactions and saves me the time of having to sift through medical jargan to find the information I want to know and can understand. A great buy! |
